May 16th is Armed Forces Day recognizing American service members for their work and commemorating the unification of the United States Armed Forces in 1950.

Congressman John K. Delaney (MD-6) releases the following statement:

"Every American service member is required to swear an oath to support and defend the United States Constitution, a pledge that our men and women in uniform meet with courage, conviction and sacrifice. The work they do takes place near and far, in our communities and around the globe in some of the most dangerous environments imaginable. On Armed Services Day, we celebrate and remember their dedication to serving our country and recommit ourselves to providing our service members and veterans with the care and benefits they deserve. I encourage any veteran who needs help receiving their benefits to contact my office. Thank you to the men and women that work to defend our nation and protect the freedoms we all enjoy."
